Today, 50,000 people rallied in Kuala Lumpur (see AFP photo on right – WOW!), braving rain and massive police force to reach the Royal Palace in order to hand in the memorandum on free and fair elections. The police were helpless when confronted by a feisty sea of yellow.

Woww.. I can now see the flicker of hope and success in this nation. Bravo to my fellow Malaysians who walked for justice, peace and good governance. It looks like DiGi’s widest coverage but of course this one is for a bigger change. Inilah masa untuk berubah. BERSIH, always the smarter choice!

I am so proud to be a malaysian, altough i did not go there, i have never felt more close to my malay , chinese brothers , this is true unity , I am proud to be a “bangsa Malaysia” Daulat Tuanku, 10-11 the most important day in our generations history,
I have always stayed away from politics, but now i feel a strong urge to register to vote and cast my vote for the future of all malay , chinese , indian , and all other BANGSA MALAYSIA children. Daulat Tuanku as i am truly proud to be a malaysian today……..

Shame on the govt. using such dirty tactics. Road block in Sg.Besi lasted for almost 12 hours. I pity the ppl fr. the south coming up to KL. Saw a ambulance blarring away… with no way to go. Lanes were filled up to the emergency lane. Pure madness, I wonder how long was the jam… did it reach Seremban?

[…] your best bet is to get news online. Jeff Ooi has good reports and pictures of the event. So has Elizabeth Wong. The Malaysiakini site was overwhelmed by readers on Saturday night but is up again now. […]

Standing for few hours..walking more tan a hour soaking wet with heavy rain….40,000 of us..never gave up.
Saw so many older than me….walking with determinations to withstand the rain….pains and aches…no fear for anything..especially FRU.
We walked our talks. Did you?

Come rain or shine!
We’ll march the line, our arms entwined!
Whatever the color, we really don’t mind!
Whatever race, creed or rank, in purpose we bind!
Whatever it takes, in spirit or in kind!
We Will be heard, we Will Not be undermined!

We do not wish to think, or speak, or write with moderation.
We are in earnest. We will not equivocate.
We will not excuse. We will not retreat a single inch.
And we Will be heard!
We Will have our say, and we Will be heard!
The future belongs to us. We Will be heard!
